Abstract

Abstract:

This paper presents an in-house-designed dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma reformer for hydrogen production via partial oxidation reforming of methane. We examined the effects of oxygen/carbon (O/C) molar ratio, feed flow rate, discharge gap, discharge zone length, filler diameter, filler shape, filler materials, discharge voltage, and discharge frequency on the hydrogen production performance i.e., CH₄ conversion rate, H₂ yield, and selectivity of products (H₂, CO, and CO₂). The experimental results showed that the parameters of the discharge zone played an important role in the CH₄ conversion rate. For instance, CH₄ conversion rate increased with increasing discharge zone lengths. When the discharge zone length increased from 5 to 20 cm, CH₄ conversion rate increased from 6.87% to 22.26%, which corresponds to an improvement of 224%. Also, the fillers in the discharge zone strongly influenced the hydrogen production performance. Using reactors with fillers generated higher CH₄ conversion rates. Moreover, using fillers with more appropriate dielectric constants is advantageous for practical application. The H₂ yield and hydrogen selectivity increased with increasing discharge frequency. Specifically, when the discharge frequency increased from 1.5 to 7.0 kHz, H₂ yield increased from 1.10% to 9.49%, and hydrogen selectivity increased from 21.18% to 30.06%. It is believed that the current results would serve as a good guideline in hydrogen production from hydrocarbon fuels by plasma reforming.
